Looks like in 2011-12 the NHL released their schedule on June 23. The original NHL schedule in 2012-13 was released on June 21.. So, yea it should be soon. Guessing the later season might be delaying it

I would think there will be big groups. Doesn't MR have season tickets for Columbus? What are seat prices there like? I know they will probably raise them this coming season because of playing in the east.

Season ticket prices are different (I think I pay $45 a ticket for row S behind the away team double attack goal) but when there was that invasion 2 years ago, I think I got two tickets for like $50 a piece in 119 behind the goal the Pens shot twice at (though it was the presale code). I'm not really sure if they've gone up at all, though it'd probably be safe to assume they did since they were on the verge of the playoffs.

They may also offer student rush for the Pens games (they haven't in then past because it's been a marquee game, but with the new division and 3 games in C-Bus, they may offer them). Student Rush was $15 for upper and $25 for lower. Just need to show them an ID, and they go on sale an hour prior (unless you get them online from 12-1).

I'm planning on hitting up the first preseason game in Columbus on 9/15. Once the date nears maybe I'll start a roll call thread and see if any LGPers want to meet at that hockey bar by their arena for libations before and after the game.
